Bug#917812: gnome-software: update broke gnome software

[rohit]

Package: gnome-software
Version: 3.30.6-4
Followup-For: Bug #917812

Dear Maintainer,

I found this fix by accident.
I disconnect my laptop from the internet completely
and restart. On restart gnome-software works again somehow.
Also removed the flatpak and snap plugins but that definitely
wasn't the cause as the bug exists without them too.
